After some time of being neglected I was pleased to discover last week that the greenhouse has all the time been living up to its name, unnoticed. These are the remains of the self-sown spinach after rest was picked and cooked last week. That produced 8 portions to go with our home cooking - and what you can see will provide at least another 2. Then the greenhouse will be cleaned, the beds cleared out and replaced with a mix of fresh ericaceous compost mixed with richer material from our own compost bin - ready for tomatoes once the seedlings have grown.
